eBay tokens

I have some questions about eBay tokens:

1. can I use token fetched for Germany on France eBay ?
(meaning are eBay tokens different for each country)

2. on the same eBay country, are tokens different for various users ?
(should I regenerate token if I want to do eBay operations for another user) ?


Thanks in advance.

A token is specific to a particular UserID and AppID. The site/country are irrelevant.

There are many operations that are only possible with a token created for a particular UserID. For example, only the seller can retrieve the buyer's shipping address.

Thanks a lot for your answer David.

I'm writting an app, which lets auction creator (some seller) to fetch her bidders contact information (phone, address, email).
Currently I only managed to get email via GetUser() API call (when ItemID provided in request).
How can I get more detailed info ??
